    Just got verified on Coinbase, does this mean I'm verified on Gdax too or is that separate?

    No you need to submit 2 IDs to get access to deposit into GDAX. Fill them in with either tool. It should guide you through.

    It verifies the first ID automatically from Coinbase

    Trying adding a second form of identity verification in coinbase, the verification process on coinbase is much better than on GDAX.

    Once you two forms on identity verification on coinbase they will carry over to GDAX.

    I already had one form verified on coinbase but needed another when I signed into GDAX. My verification kept failing. I looked around online and found the easiest way is to go back to Coinbase and do the second verification there.

    Yeah I uploaded both forms of ID and they both got accepted but I'm having another problem now, I'm abroad at the moment and they want a local form of ID for the country I'm in!
    The site automatically selects your country based on your IP I'm guessing but I won't be home until March at the earliest so there's no way around it :(

    Install a VPN. Make sure that it covers the country you want to be in. (eg, not all VPNs have a server in Ireland.) https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/ does. GDAX don't have a problem with using a VPN according to this:

    Not seeing any option in Coinbase to upload a second form of image verification. Want to verify my driving license, my passport is already verified.

    Yea it's confusion but I've a solution...

    When the inevitable failure email arrives from Coinbase/GDAX then open it and you will see a button to 'try again'

    This will shortcut you into your Coinbase account where you will then be able to submit a second set of documents etc.

    I too couldn't find it under my regular login. But this way you can get to the menu in question.

    Hope This helps

    Question. I want to buy ripple. Is binance the best option?

    So I buy litecoin on gdax and then transfer to binance?

    What ID did you use to get verified?

    I've tried Passport and old Drivers license to no avail...
